A light and likeable screwball comedy with a stellar ensemble cast.

She's Funny That Way is trying very hard to be a sexy screwball comedy. It tries so hard, with such a contrived and silly story, that it only succeeds in wearing the audience down. [Full review in Japanese]

She's Funny That Way makes for good fun, though it's not necessarily funny in that, or many other, ways. If nothing else, it's heartening to see Bogdanovich back in the saddle.

The actors do their best with a hit-and-miss screenplay.
August 27, 2015 | Rating: 2/4 -
The giggly men's-magazine tone, especially in Bogdanovich's treatment of call girls, makes the movie seem weirdly anachronistic.

This is an easy film to like though not a total success.

Audience Reviews for She's Funny That Way

Jul 21, 2017Convivial ensemble comedy with stand out performances from Jennifer Aniston As a jilted psychiatrist, and a real short case for images and boot as a jilted psychiatrist, and a real shorwcase for Imogen Poots Who is completely adorable despite a suspect Brooklyn accent. Or gun of its goes to great lengths to create a load of hexagon, but a "2 months later" Quickfix conclusion feels like a copout.Doctor S Super Reviewer

May 11, 2016A sweet but louche playwright gifts young call girls with generous nest eggs to encourage them to stop hooking, but when one such ingénue gets cast in his play starring his wife, the show nearly goes dark. Peter Bogdanovich's philosophical romantic comedy is reminiscent of Woody Allen's show biz fables - full of mistaken identities, magical realism, and a star-making turn from real-life ingénue Imogen Poots. Her lurchy walk is so awkward yet purposeful.Alice S Super Reviewer

Mar 13, 2016Didn't expect a whole lot, but this wasn't bad. It isn't the greatest movie ever, but it's an entertaining enough hour and a half. It felt very like a Woody Allen movie to me in its delivery and theme. Jennifer Aniston is the bitchiest I've ever seen her. Very amusing. Imogene Poots is also quite engaging as the call girl turned actress. Owen Wilson, sleazy as ever. I am immune to him, I don't see his appeal at all.Nicki M Super Reviewer

Feb 29, 2016She's Funny That Way is a farcical comedy that delivers some good laughs. The film follows a rising young actress named Izzy Patterson who tells the story of how a chance meeting with a play producer turned into her big break. Starring Owen Wilson, Imogen Poots, Jennifer Aniston, and Rhys Ifans, the casting is pretty good, and they do quite well with this style of board comedy. Still, some of the jokes don't land and there are a few too many characters. Also, the frame story of the actress being interviewed seems rather contrived. Yet despite being somewhat clunky and disjointed, She's Funny That Way is entertaining and kind of fun.Dann M Super Reviewer
